All too often I spend my days going at full speed. I try to cram so much into the day that I collapse at the end of the day in a heap; unable to move. If I go to a restaurant and I have to wait longer for my food than I would like or expect to wait, I grumble and seethe rather than see it as a time to catch my breath. If I end up behind someone slower leaving a store, I often act like my world will end. when what I really need to do is see it as a chance to help or make a new friend by smiling and giving a cheerful "hello". I thank God that he gives us days with nothing to do, No places to go, No one to see. I can slow down, Relax, and breathe. Sometimes, it is hard to slow down to relax. I am thankful that God knows that we need to slow down. Thank you, God, for rest that restores and quiets our souls, we need to rest and unplug from the world and plug into God. I thank God that when the world gets too crazy we can find rest in him. He is our rest.
